However, the other lines...Pirates, Transformers, G.I. Joe, Star Wars, Marvel, etc. that I collect, have been coming in and out (Hard to keep TFs on the shelf), so I know that my Target is still getting stock in...just not Mattel/DC stuff.

Just the same one that has existed for almost 8 months now. This is our status quo with Mattel now... that, and their added back-peddling, blatant question dodging and obvious avoidance towards this issue.

Yeah, i'm definitley tired of getting the run around from Mattel, that's for sure. I wonder if Target is dropping the line (even though they ordered another exclusive figure) and Mattel doesn't want to tell us. Target does have alot of DC options to go with now and that tie into shows that are actually on tv.

This is possible... and a scenario that I've predicted, and feared, for awhile now. I truly hope not though.

I live in Orlando...a fairly big city...I have no less than 10 Targets or SuperTargets withing 5-30 minutes of me...

I have 3 Toys R Us stores all within 30 minutes of me...

And about 8-10 Wal Marts all within 5-30 minutes from me as well...

I am a collector, so I stop into these stores almost daily or close to it...I am not a child who "lucks out" and gets a rare figure...

And yet I have NEVER seen Vigilante, Vixen, Zatanna, Blue Devil, Sinestro or Kyle Raynor on a single card...

I have never seen 3 packs of Volcana or Obsidion or Star Sapphire...

Only ONCE have I seen 3 packs of Barda, Stargirl and Hawkman...

And even though I have seen them a few times, I would say it was probably LESS than 5 times that I have seen Single carded Shades, Dr Lights and Huntress figures...and a 3 pack of Etrigan...

So, If I have ALL these stores to shop out, and am a collector who goes almost daily trying to find them...What is it like for the people who live in small towns who have limites accessability to JLU toys???

I try to be a rational person, but Mattel truly needs to own the fact that they have inflicted some pretty significant damage to the longevity of this line based on product availability and product mix...

Like I said, I try to be rational...and I am grateful that they have given us SO many characters over the years including some that I didn't think had a shot of being made at all...but it would almost be more merciful at this point to just cancel the line...
